Last year the Society was timid, and feared to go to the expense necessary to make first-class preparations, and the premium list was very much limited.— But now there is no dcubt that the peo ple are willing to pay a gate fee to so worthy an,enterprise, and this year a really splendid list of premiums will be offered. The treasury has now in hand a very neat snm to begin with nex! summer—the net profits of the last fair; and uo member expects to make one cent of individual profit. The people of Houston aud adjoining co un ties may now begin to prepare, plant, make and fix for the fair of 1879. It is q nitc likely that a grand premium of $50 or §100 will be offered for the lar gest aud finest display of farm products by one planter, and other premiums in proportion. The horse, cattle, and oth er departments will have many very- liberal premiums offered. Prepare for the fair. PERSONAL. MY NEW STOCK.

A WoxDEitFCL Affaik.—The Fort Vh!lev Mirror tells how Gus Thomp son, of Taylor county was driving iicrona a bridge when his team got frightened t aud ran off into nine feet water, when he jumped nit aud he'd their hoods up until he could walk a mile and a aalf to get.help t o take them out of the neek. This reminds ns of a .dream of a friend "n P- t-ry. He dreamed he was lead but could get no one to, dig his -rave for him. He them borrowed a spade a.*! 1 went to work at it himself, but to his gre it mortification looked up md saw the hearse coming witti his corpse bofora he had half fiu isliod his ■pave. Fortunately he awoke before the burial took place. or nearly so, in the belief that Con gress should enact a comprehensive and stnngeut national quarantine. The commercial interest iu New Orleans did not seem to be very enthusiastic for a national quarantine, but the Mississip pi people were very earnest in favoring it. The Mississippi people iuformed the committee that in the absence of a national quarantine in case of another yellow fever visitation in New Orleans, they would estanlisli a regnlar shotgun quarantine of their own against that city, burn down the railroad bridges, ete. The sanitary condition of New Orleans is said to be frightful, and the experts have knowledge that there are still isolated cases of the fever in that city. THE BEST COTTON MARKET IS HA WKINS YILLE.

Hunt. Rau kin 4: Lamar. Too often ho-isekeepers lose an entire season by depending open spurious seeds for their early vegetables. And nothing is certainly more provoking. The boys enjoyed the bonfire, aud it was astonishing how brightly and fiercely the seeds burned.
